|PHOTOS| kissing kids on the lips is 'too sexual'

A few weeks ago, a child psychologist from Californian university UCLA, Dr Charlotte Reznick, said kissing children on the lips was too 'sexual' and asked parents to stop it as it is confusing for young children. Australian mothers have slammed the claim, saying 'it's perfectly natural and loving.' They further protested by sharing photos online of them kissing their children on the lips.

Dr Reznick's  comments were originally sparked by an old photo of Hollywood actor Harry Connick Jr kissing his then eight-year-old daughter on the lips.
